(“Golden Tag” or the “Company”) (TSX.V: GOG) is pleased to announce that it has closed the first tranche (the “First Tranche”) of its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”) of subscription receipts (each a “Subscription Receipt”). The gross proceeds received under the First Tranche combined with those to be received pursuant to subscription commitments secured by the Company will result in aggregate gross proceeds of $5.7 million.

This Offering is being completed in connection with the previously announced acquisition (the “Transaction”) of the La Parrilla Silver Mine Complex in Durango State, Mexico (“La Parrilla”) (as more fully described in the press release dated December 7, 2022 available at www.SEDAR.com).

Subscription Receipts

The Subscription Receipts were issued pursuant to the terms of a subscription receipt agreement (the “Subscription Receipt Agreement”) entered into between Marrelli Trust Company Limited and the Company. The Escrow Release Conditions (as defined below) are set forth in the Subscription Receipt Agreement and provide that if the Escrow Release Conditions are not satisfied on or before the Release Deadline (as defined below), then the Subscription Receipts shall be cancelled and the subscription receipt agent shall distribute the escrowed funds to the holders of the Subscription Receipts, together with their pro rata share of interest earned thereon.

The gross proceeds from the sale of the Subscription Receipts, less any finders’ fees and expenses payable on closing of the First Tranche, are being held in escrow pending satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including all conditions to the closing of the Transaction (the “Escrow Release Conditions”). Upon satisfaction or waiver (as applicable) of the Escrow Release Conditions on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on August 15, 2023, or such later date as may be determined in accordance with the Subscription Receipt Agreement (the “Release Deadline”) each Subscription Receipt will be exchanged for one Unit (subject to adjustment in certain events). The Transaction remains subject to a number of conditions, including, but not limited to: (i) the approval of the Company’s shareholders as a result of the Transaction creating a new control person; (ii) the receipt of all necessary consents, approvals and authorizations (including approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) and the Mexican Antitrust Commission) for the Transaction; (iii) the completion of the Offering for gross proceeds of CAD$9.0 million; and (iv) other conditions which are customary for a transaction of this type.

Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each whole Warrant shall be exercisable to acquire one Common Share at a price of C$0.34 per Common Share for a period of 36 months from the date of the exchange of the Subscription Receipts.

Forward-looking statements are not comprised of historical facts. Forward-looking statements include estimates and statements that describe the Company’s future plans, objectives or goals, including words to the effect that the Company or management expects a stated condition or result to occur. Forward-looking statements may be identified by such terms as “believes”, “anticipates”, “expects”, “estimates”, “may”, “could”, “would”, “will”, or “plan”. Since forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Although these statements are based on information currently available to the Company, the Company provides no assurance that actual results will meet management’s expectations. Risks, uncertainties and other factors involved with forward-looking information could cause actual events, results, performance, prospects and opportunities to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information.

In making the forward-looking statements included in this news release, the Company has applied several material assumptions, including that the Company´s financial condition and development plans do not change because of unforeseen events, that future metal prices and the demand and market outlook for metals will remain stable or improve, management’s ability to execute its business strategy, the receipt of all necessary approvals, the satisfaction of all closing conditions of the Transaction, the closing of the Offering, and no unexpected or adverse regulatory changes with respect to La Parrilla. Forward-looking statements and information are subject to various known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the ability of the Company to control or predict, that may cause the Company´s actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied thereby, and are developed based on assumptions about such risks, uncertainties and other factors set out herein, including, but not limited to, the risk that the Company is not able to complete the Transaction or the Offering on the terms anticipated by the Company (or at all), the risk that the Company is unable to obtain requisite corporate and regulatory approvals, including but not limited to the approval of the TSXV, the Mexican government, and shareholder approval, the risk that the assumptions referred to above prove not to be valid or reliable, market conditions and volatility and global economic conditions including increased volatility and potentially negative capital raising conditions resulting from the continued or escalation of the COVID-19 pandemic, risk of delay and/or cessation in planned work or changes in the Company´s financial condition and development plans; risks associated with the interpretation of data (including in respect of third party mineralized material) regarding the geology, grade and continuity of mineral deposits, the uncertainty of the geology, grade and continuity of mineral deposits and the risk of unexpected variations in mineral resources, grade and/or recovery rates; risks related to gold, silver and other commodity price fluctuations; employee relations; relationships with and claims by local communities and indigenous populations; availability and increasing costs associated with mining inputs and labour, the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, including the risks of obtaining necessary licenses and permits and the presence of laws and regulations that may impose restrictions on mining; risks relating to environmental regulation and liability; the possibility that results will not be consistent with the Company´s expectations.
